Default Re: Best for MPG -- Roof rack or Tow Hitch Mounted Rack?

Assuming the inside option(s) don't fly, behind-the-vehicle is by far the better option. It'll do not pretty things for drag, but far less damage than up top. And its already turbulent back there anyway. Drag force in direct proportion to frontal area. Putting bikes up top only adds to frontal area.
